It looks like it could be a strikethrough from grease & debris that accumulated on the die and then fell away onto the next planchet before it was struck. Chris
my neighbor gave me 5 rolls of nickels part of a birthday gift so I was just wondering if the nickel had any value. thank you
This kind of strikethrough is fairly common. Personally, I wouldn't pay a premium for it, but that doesn't mean there aren't plenty of bidiots out there. It's just hard to place a value on it from the outset. Chris
